To update what marcusmerge merges, you can either go to the ports-stable
folder, and do a manual cvs up, and rerun marcusmerge - or possibly run
marcusmerge -m ports-stable -U (I guess, I used cvs up).

I'm not convinced that it is firefox2 that causes the build problems.
The problem file for me was /usr/local/include/jspubtd.h , which I think
was part of spidermonkey (standalone mozilla javascript). Firefox puts
jspubtd.h in /usr/local/include/firefox .

Firefox 3 is very strange. Even when built, it doesn't work correctly
for me. I've only tried a few things so far, but for one, the address
bar doesn't seem to work properly, it doesn't change when you change tab
and it doesn't change when you follow a link. I'll try rebuilding..
